in case anyone is still here....

For the purposes of this check-in, we will define extended breastfeeding as breastfeeding beyond 1 year. Questions are repeated and suggestions are appreciated!

1. How old is your LO?
2. How many times per day does your LO nurse?
3. Do you still nurse on demand, or have you taken steps to actively drop nursing sessions?
4. How old was your LO when you introduced solids and how did LO take to them? How is your LO eating now?

Pregnant & BFing Moms: How are you doing this week? Any issues with supply, pain, aversion? Questions for other moms?

Tandem Nursing Moms: How are you doing this week? Any current challenges? Questions for other moms?

Non-BFing question of the week: When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with?

p.s. wondering where everyone went? PM me for details.

1. How old is your LO? 22 months
2. How many times per day does your LO nurse? 3-4
3. Do you still nurse on demand, or have you taken steps to actively drop nursing sessions? DS2 used to nurse when he woke up and then again before i left for work, but i've been trying to consolidate those 2 into 1 session, so he just nurses before i leave for work.
4. How old was your LO when you introduced solids and how did LO take to them? How is your LO eating now? we did BLW at about 6 months. he liked solids but maybe wasn't quite as enthusiastic as DS1 was. he's gotten pickier over the past few months. he loves pizza, pasta, yogurt, cheerios, raisins, and chocolate and is blah about everything else, pretty much.

Non-BFing question of the week: When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with? IRL- computers, cooking/food, and where can i buy X item.
